Hi,
I'm Pinky. I have Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Depression and mild OCD.
I am 27 years old and live on my own in Reading, Berkshire. I have a little boy, but he lives with my mum because of my mental health issues. I have been ill since I was 14 and have a history of self harm, depression and mental health issues.
I have been an inpatient more times than I can remember and have been sectioned too.
A few months ago, I split with my boyfriend, and basically went off the rails stopped all my meds and caused criminal damage to his cars. I have to go to court about it next week, and I am really struggling to cope and to contain my feelings of self harm, which is why I decided to find a forum, in the hope I can feel less alone..
Anyway, that's me... I am very open and honest and have nothing to hide, all I want is to chat to people who understand
Pinky

Welcome to the forum.

Because of the nature of your mental health problems, you might do things impulsively without thinking about the consequences.

Have you tried DBT, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and it has some evidence that it could improve borderline personality disorders and would help your coping skills with life.

i understand from how hard time you are moving you should try DBT as said by the admin.
